A great new product from Behmor Inc; winner of the 2012 new product consumer pick at the SCAA convention.
We are very excited for Behmor's new coffee brewer, the "Brazen": This brewer incorporates just about everything that can make your coffee taste its best!
This brewer is going to give you the final step to making an awesome cup of coffee, tailored just the way you want it!
Set specific brew temps and time, set the pre-wet lapse time, even takes into consideration your altitude (which affects water boiling temps). Comes with an auto start function so in those mornings that you are in a hurry, the awesome brew is ready to go.
The Brazen is a precision brewer: to have the best success with the Brazen you need to use quality filtered water, if you have hard water, best bet would be to filter it (Britta or such) or use a bottled water solution.
Brews into a very nice air pot to keep the coffee hot for a good long time; keeps it away from those nasty heating elements that will burn your coffee.
Very nice showerhead water dispenser, making sure to even extract your grinds.
Comes with a re-usable metal filter, but we tend to prefer leaving it aside for a quality paper filter.

What do we think? Only good things! At first glance I was pretty sure it was a space craft of some sort; going to take right off our counter and orbit the moon for a bit. Upon closer inspection I found a brewer that will go toe to toe with any on the market. Innovative and fresh the Brazen will quickly find a warm place in your heart when it makes you stellar cup after stellar cup.
The Brazen will make one of the best cups around because it will really let you dial in your brew; water temp, pre-wet cycle and even extraction. These simple things will make one heck of a difference. One problem, how do you know what to set it for? Well it took us about 3 pots of coffee to dial it in, now it couldn't be easier. We recommend doing a slightly coarser grind for a drip brew (22-24 on our Baratza), brew temp of 204 with a pre-wet cycle of a minute ten. I am so used to a fine grind with drip brew to achieve the strength I need in my cup, wanted to bring that mentality to the Brazen and got many over extracted cups of coffee, amazing what a brewer can do when the water is actually around 200 degrees and held there for the entire brew cycle. You can do a finer grind but make sure to drop you temps to 194-198.
The Brazen uses a top load water boiler (accurate to the degree) and a gravity feed down to the grounds losing barely any temp while doing so. I would put it in the 5 minute range for the water to get up to temp where it well then dump a little bit on water on the grounds and enter the pre-wet cycle (to be determined by you). If using fresh coffee, make sure to set it for a minute plus, stale coffee can be 30 seconds plus (you all better be using fresh coffee!). It will then finish the brew when the pre-wet time has elapsed. All in all, taking around 10-12 minutes from start to finish.
